What do you know about the new HRT information?

Posted by cbp123 @cbp123, Nov 11, 2025

I am hearing a lot about the use of HRT for post menopausal women and that it is very helpful with women’s health overall
Your thoughts? Thank you. Carolyn

are you at liberty to share the Naturopathic Doctor you have had success with? I live in a rural area of Wilkes County and there are no Naturopathic Doctors in our area. I still work full time and walk every morning and I too have developed the "anxiety" "anger" symptoms for no apparent reason...thank you Carolyn

If that is North Carolina, try functional medicine.

I would be happy to share with you but it may not be helpful. I live in Vancouver, BC , Canada
I could continue to post my treatment and progress, and perhaps you can learn from it and see if your doctor will prescribe you the meds. I’ve just started my treatment, 12 days so far so I can’t say that it is working yet.
The ND is Dr. Maria Fabbro and she works in a clinic in Burnaby, BC called Total Therapy. You can find it online. I don’t know if she does online appointments with people outside of BC.
The other ND is Dr. Lawrence Chan who is with Integrative Naturopathic Medical Centre in Vancouver, BC. You can find it online.

thanks so very much and i agree about the distance....Hopefully i will find someone closer to home. I look forward to hearing how you are doing with your treatment. It is my understanding that new information indicates that the "breast cancer scare" is behind us now ....It just makes sense if your body loses something it needs you should replace it if possible. Thank you again Carolyn

I understand the transdermal vs oral is safer and unlikely to cause cancer. The bioidentical hormones are preferred over the synthetic type. I’m unsure of the accuracy of the info on Google but I get a lot of information from their AI.
A good HRT Doctor would be able answer any questions
